The China Flexpat podcast interviews professionals in China to help people from all over the world find the best jobs in China.
We uncover myths and show the truth about challenges and opportunities when looking for a life in the Middle Kingdom.
Flexpats are like expats, but flexible. Highly interested in China's business world, culture, people and language but without the backing of a multinational company that provides large salary packages.
We want to show you how you can become a well paid and happy China flexpat with the right skills and mindset.

Kundenrezensionen
:-)
Very interesting, I learned a lot :-)
Great Podcast about living and working in China
The China Flexpad podcast is just great and I only can highly recommend it. Helpful for everyone who is planning to spend (part of) their career in China. Both China newbies as well as old China hands are sharing their experiences of living and working in China, their pitfalls and lessons, their successes and achievements. If you ever plan to work in China this podcast is definitely worth to listen, it will make things a lot easier and you have a great community of Flexpads behind that you can reach out to. The podcast covers various industries and guests from so diverse backgrounds and cultures which is making it both super informative and inspiring.
Authentic life experience
People from different backgrounds share their insights from living in China and interacting with Chinese people. Very grateful for this podcast as I’m preparing myself for working in China soon. I can recommend this podcast to anybody interested in working with Chinese colleagues or working and living in China.
